BastetsMum, that's very interesting. I tend to think Beans is reacting the same way as your Bastet.

The thing is Beans is a rescue (I got her when she was around 10 mths. old) and I don't know anything about her at all 'til she moved in with me, but in the 2½ years I've had her, I have noticed she tends to get eye problems.

Yes, I called the vet immediately this morning, but talked to the vet nurse and she'd never encountered this problem before, but would look into it.

(I told her about this site and that I would make a post here. She's very interested in hearing what kinda of experiences you people here have had and asked me to "report" back to her )
